Are my materials really recycled?

99.99% of everything we collect gets recycled here in the UK.

I have quite a lot of cardboard.

We can only take a certain amount of extra card each week. One green box plus the same size either in a box or as a bundle tied with string, per household, per week. We completely understand that with Christmas time comes a lot more packaging but for large items, we ask that this is taken to the Household Waste Recycling Centre (The Tip) in Docks Way, Newport.

* Can save you money – you see what you throw away.

* Good for the environment – gets turned into energy and compost.

If you're overflowing with #MondayMotivaton why not come and use it at the Wastesavers Reuse Centre in Newport?! They are always looking for hardworking volunteers, in particular for IT & as a drivers mate for their all-important collections/deliveries! pic.twitter.com/q8l2…
